Dad builds daughter Ninja Warrior course to help with training

(WTHR) - A Colorado girl is determined to be an American Ninja Warrior one day and her awesome dad is helping her get there.

Lylah MacCall's journey to NBC's hit competition show started last August when her father, Gavin, constructed an obstacle course in the family's living room.

A year later, dad's imagination went a little wild and he transformed the entire backyard into an American Ninja Warrior course. Gavin wrote to Facebook that he amassed most of the supplies for the course by scanning Craigslist for free items.

Now that we're getting into the second half of August, it's the the time of year when we really start to monitor the far eastern Atlantic for budding tropical waves that could potentially develop into tropical storms or hurricanes.
